Turkey Shortage

Butterball, the nations largest producers of turkeys, is telling everyone that they may have a shortage of turkeys this year. They also said the turkeys had trouble gaining weight for this years Thanksgiving and it may be a struggle to get turkeys 16 pounds or more. They did say they would send out the smaller birds too, but there just wont be as many big ones. Butterball is en-charge of around 41 million birds a year which is about 16 percent of all turkeys distributed. But during Thanksgiving 1 out of every 4 turkeys is a Butterball so this may be a huge concern to families all around the country.
